Toogood Gold Completes Phase 2 Fieldwork at

Toogood Gold Project, Newfoundland

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - January 6, 2026) - Toogood Gold Corp.

(TSXV: TGC)

(OTCQB: TGGCF) (FSE: D3P)

("

Toogood

" or the "

Company

") today announces the completion of its

Phase 2 fieldwork program ("Phase 2") at its 100%-owned Toogood Gold Project ("Toogood" or the

"Project"), located on New World Island in the mining-friendly jurisdiction of Newfoundland, Canada.

Key Point Summary

Prospecting, rock and soil sampling, and geological and structural mapping completed at the

newly acquired Golden Nugget Property ("Golden Nugget") targeting an 8.5-kilometer-long high-

grade outcrop trend with a subset of 148 historical rock samples that grade ≥1 g/t Au and average

~7 g/t Au (see news release dated October 1, 2025);

Continuation of regional soil sampling within the underexplored northeastern block ("NE Block"),

and infill sampling of anomalies return from Phase 1 soil sampling;

Ground-truthing of geophysical targets from the 2025 Deep Ground Penetrating Radar ("DGPR")

survey at the Quinlan Zone (see news release dated December 18, 2025);

Phase 2 fieldwork was completed in four weeks, and all assays remain pending.

Management Commentary

"Following a very successful 2025 exploration season, Phase 2 marks the next step in systematically

expanding our discovery footprint across the Toogood district,"

stated

Colin Smith, CEO of Toogood

Gold Corp.

"The combination of regional high-grade historical outcrop sampling at Golden Nugget,

new geophysical targets at Quinlan, and extensive underexplored ground to the northeast translates

multiple near-term catalysts as we continue building momentum into 2026."

Phase 2 Fieldwork

Phase 2 of the 2025 exploration campaign at the Toogood Gold Project comprised a comprehensive

surface program integrating geological mapping, structural analysis, soil geochemistry, and rock

sampling across multiple high-priority areas. Work focused on three core components:

1

.

Golden Nugget Property Mapping

:

a

.

Detailed geological and structural mapping along the 8.5-km-long coastal trend at the

recently acquired Golden Nugget Property (Figure 2);

b

.

Area is characterized by abundant high-grade historical outcrop samples (n = 129)

averaging 7 g/t Au, with select values exceeding 127 g/t Au;

c

.

This work will help to refine mineralization controls, verify historical data, and identify

extensions of the untested shoreline trend for future drilling.

2

.

Soil Sampling

:

a

.

Systematic soil sampling within the underexplored NE Block continued, extending the

regional grid coverage (Figure 1);

b

.

Infill soil sampling grid (25-meter sample spacing,100-meter line spacing) completed to

further delineate an open-ended 1-km-long soil anomaly returned from Phase 1 (Figure 3);

c

.

This soil anomaly is coincident with a prospective fault splay of a regional NE-trending

district-scale structure (Figure 3);

d

.

The goal is to identify and delineate new anomalies throughout this previously unexplored

ground, ultimately vectoring toward concealed district-scale mineralized corridors.

3

.

DGPR Targets

:

a

.

Follow-up field investigations of high-priority subsurface anomalies defined by the DGPR

survey completed earlier this summer (Figure 4);

b

.

Targets correspond to distinct breaks and reflective discontinuities interpreted to represent

extensions of the felsic dyke system that hosts the high-grade Quinlan and Titan Zones.

Collectively, the program is designed to refine the structural and lithological framework of the district,

expand the surface expression of known gold trends, and advance multiple targets to a drill-ready stage.

Data from geological mapping, soil geochemistry, and DGPR validation will be integrated into

Toogood's evolving 3D model to guide high-priority drilling in 2026.

About Toogood Gold Corp.

Toogood Gold Corp. is a Canadian exploration company focused on the discovery and advancement of

high-grade gold deposits in Newfoundland. The Company holds a 100% interest in the district-scale

Toogood Gold Project (164 km²), strategically located within the highly prospective Exploits Subzone - a

structurally complex and underexplored gold district that has yielded several recent high-grade

discoveries.

The Project's inaugural drill program in 2022 delivered a new, at-surface high-grade gold discovery, with

visible gold encountered in 15 of 19 holes and mineralization remaining open in all directions

1

. Follow-up

drilling in 2025 continued to expand this system, intersecting visible gold in 10 of 30 holes and further

confirming open-ended mineralization along strike and at depth

2

.

The Toogood Gold Project benefits from exceptional infrastructure, including paved highway access,

power lines, fresh water,

and proximity to deep water ports, positioning the Project for efficient, low-cost

exploration and development.
